Extract from a Daily Paper.

Agent Henry E. Stocking, of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children, last evening in one room
on the top floor of an old three-story
frame building at 67 King street, found
Mrs. Julia Shaughnessy, aged thirty
two, sitting on the bed intoxicated. Two
children, Tessie, aged three, and johann
ma, aged eight, were almost naked.
The room had only broken bed, three
seatless chairs and three-legged table.
While Mr.. Stocking was examining the
room the third child, Nellie, aged six,
entered, having a flask of whisky
clutched in both of her hands. She
was barely able to walk from weak
ness. Not crust of bread or any
thing edible was found in the room.
The ch1ldren's eyes were red from cry
ing for bread, while the besotted moth
er had sent for ten cents worth of
whisky. The children were in most
filthy condition. For the past month
Mary, aged thirteen, has been earning
four dollars q week in a preserve fac
tory. Little of her wages went for
food, the mother spending it on
whisky. John Shaushnessy, the hus-
band and father, died some five weeks
ago. Agent Stocking had the children
washed and clothed and then sent toan
institution. Justice Duffy committed
the mother for three months IN Y
Sun.

oppo,ed to EuIos,.iax Beecher.

CHICAGO, Ill March AN extra
ordinary scene took p ace at the week.
ly meeting of the Congregational
ministers this morning. A topic
W ich came up was the sickness from
which Henry Ward Beecher is be-
lieved to be dying, and the state
ment of some of the pastors
present took the shape OF resolu-
tions OF coincidence, which 1t was
proposed to send. to Mrs. Beecher by
telegraph. This was opposed by
number OF the ministers, their oppos-
ition being based on the alleged heter-
odoxy OF Mr.. Beecher'e views regard
ing future salvation and punishment.
An acrimonious debate eneued and
fiaally the motion to adopt
the resolution was lost. Great
excitement prevailed and the ut
most efforts were made to keep the
affairs from the newspapers. The
clergyman who alluded so hluntly to
the Mton scandal is the Rev. F. T.
Hammond. He is without copgre-
cation, being on the retired. Mr..
Hammond refused tonight to say q
word regarding the speeches made by
himself or others touching the dying
mans alleged immortality.

yesterday received Herr Wedell Pies

In the conversation which took place,
the Emperor said that he was r. luct-

Reichstag. Despite his explanation to
the Reichstag Of the superiority ei
Germany's neighbors over her in mil
itary matters, the opposition maj ority
refused to sanction the military bill to
the necessary extent, and the reasona.
BILE hope that the 9sptennate term
would have been adopted, after the
example given by france, proved
fallacious. 1t was more gratifying
now to cherish the hope that large
majority in the new R-ichbtag would
accept the bill at the outset. Referring
to the attitude OF the Pope during the
elections, he said he had already been
convinced OF the pacific disposition Of
His Holiness, ,sn that IL was on this 40
count that Germany had ssked him to
act as arbitrator In the dispute with
Spain about the Caroline Islands. In
conclusion, the Emperor ex Jressed the
hope that all the ecclesisstie t'ouble
between Prussia and the Vatican
would soon be peacefully and COM
pletely settled.
